I have a 996 Porsche and I’ll be first to admit that at low load/low revs, they sound terrible.

That color mismatch seems way too consistent to be just the lighting. I googled other red Ram pics to see if others have it but it was inconclusive. I think maybe the paint performs differently with the plastic pieces making up the body kit.

Actual sale result for this car at Barrett -Jackson:

As the owner of a Porsche 996 with the same feature, I can tell you that a lot of sellers (usually dealers) like popping that spoiler up manually when they take photos. 20+ years ago it was impressive but today it's just meh.

Rob must’ve edited the post, I could’ve sworn it read 3.0 liter this morning.

Yeah, after I posted I thought about it and realized if it was imported it wouldn't have a Montero badge. I had no idea they brought over a low budget trim.

It's very sketchy. The ad says alloys but the pictured wheels are steelies. To my knowledge, in the US they always came with alloys, and the interior appears to be a low-rent spec also, unlike US models. Also, these came with a 3.5L V6 in the states, so either this was imported or the seller is clueless. If imported,

That one’s not a Turbo. Also, the fresh black paint on the rockers and no underside shots are a screaming red flag. And IIRC, Volvos still had 5-digit odometers in ‘79, so I’m not buying that mileage figure either.

This price is close to the E28 M5's neighborhood. Nuts.

Replace “Corvette” with “Cutlass” and you basically have the blueprint for Oldsmobile of the 80s.

+1. All these “just part it out, NBD” types need to step up and put their money where their mouth is. They see a profitable parts car, I see months of yanking parts, putting them on eBay, packing and shipping stuff, coping with all the headaches of dealing with strangers online and at the end of it all you have the

I had no idea AAA would reimburse you. I needed a tow last fall and gave up on AAA after 2 hours. I assume since I left the scene without calling them back they’d claim I violated some kind of agreement. I called my car insurance instead and they sent a guy out quickly. I finally got a call from AAA’s tow driver after

I don’t know if they’ve changed their recipe or not, but BK onion rings used to give me the most pyrotechnic case of gas. Like, every. damn. time.

Exactly. Along with convertibles from Audi, BMW and Volvo, these are the quintessential female midlife crisis, recently divorced, empty nester, hire a personal trainer and get back out there car.

It was 1986 and I had just said adios to another crappy, rusty old car that I couldn’t keep running. I came to the conclusion that my only recourse was to use credit. I found a nice 1982 Nissan 310, gently used, clean body, only $2495. Alas, I didn’t have that much cash, but I figured no problem as I had a job and a

I jus got a shop and owner had this car i made deal with him and purchased it”

Get good snow tires, you'll be fine.

I haven’t checked out this feature in months because I got tired of the silly takes and joke recommendations. I thought with the recent staff changes, maybe it was better. Then I saw the Baja. A Baja. And even worse, it wasn’t accompanied by some sly commentary to indicate it was a joke. In what trailer park is a 16+

My suggestion to the seller: Pull the ad. Send a pic to Ferrari HQ, offering to crush the car in exchange for $4500. They'll pay, gladly.

Sounds like somebody got tired of this particular corner of the hobby and just wants out. People on the Saab forums smell desperation and won’t offer more than pocket lint for the whole pile (like people in every hobby ever) so he’s casting his net wider.
